[dpdk-dev] [PATCH RFC v2 0/3] Thread safe rte_vhost_enqueue_burst().

[Ilya Maximets <i.maximets@samsung.com>]

Implementation of rte_vhost_enqueue_burst() based on lockless ring-buffer
algorithm and contains almost all to be thread-safe, but it's not.

This set adds required changes.

First patch in set is a standalone patch that fixes many times discussed
issue with barriers on different architectures.

Second and third adds fixes to make rte_vhost_enqueue_burst thread safe.

version 2:
	* Documentation patch dropped. Other patches of series still
	  may be merged to fix existing issues and keep code in
	  consistent state for the future.
	* buf_vec field of struct vhost_virtqueue marked as deprecated.

Ilya Maximets (3):
  vhost: use SMP barriers instead of compiler ones.
  vhost: make buf vector for scatter RX local.
  vhost: avoid reordering of used->idx and last_used_idx updating.
